That one came up very nice.
That original is from Kritika's roller.
I have 6 other engines with that same flywheel but Steve's was better than all of mine by a long shot so it was the definate choice to send you as for a pattern.
I don't think LJP was too fussed if some of the flywheel castings left his workshop still looking a bit rough.

just your eyes les i tried with a bit of modelling clay to hold them in position for the pic. this has been the whole point to me actually machining and enlarging them is so original measurements can be kept. rather than take heaps of measurements and record them i thought it quicker and easier just to "finish" one for reference. but you know what thought thought!
